 For June, in the Sewalls Point residential real estate market remained strong with 8 closed sales, including a $2.6 million waterfront sale.  Unfortunately, pending sales were off by 7 homes, possibly indicating a slower summer season ahead.  The inventory of available homes is now down to only 52 homes.

The absorption rate dropped to 6.5 months.  Basically, a balanced market.  A 6 month absorption rate is considered a balanced market where neither the seller nor buyer have an advantage.

Comparing the results to June of 2012, the inventory was 57 homes on the market, 14 pending sales and there were 5 closed sales.  Better activity this year, when the lower inventory is factored in.  The drop in pending sales is troubling.
